This problem doesn't have anything to do with [area] or any other minivend
tags, because the page is outside of the minivend catalog. It is a static
"welcome" page which contains links into the catalog and is generated and
put in normal html doc space when you run makecat (the file is
yourdomain/yourcatalog/index.html). Apparently (in some situations - maybe
only in virtual domains?) the script erroneously doesn't preface the URL's
in the welcome page footer with "http://";. This makes the links are
relative instead of absolute. You can edit the source for the page yourself
to fix it - it's no big deal.
